What pet parents are saying

This was the absolute worst day of my life, but the vet made it bearable. It was a very peaceful experience for our pup and our family. The process went very smoothly and she was very patient with us.

Dr. Loughmiller was very accommodating to meet our needs at the last minute for our beloved Titan. She kept in touch with her arrival time and was extremely understanding and very kind upon arriving so late at night. Saying goodbye to your pet is the most difficult thing to do but the level of care never wavered. From her gentle approach to the dignified and formal way that Titan was carried out of the house - placed gently on a stretcher with a sheet laid upon him so delicately - will always be a comforting way to remember making the most difficult decision of my life and saying goodbye to my best friend.

She was quiet, and so kind. I was full of my broken heart. The following week I received a hand written card and the most beautiful glass rainbow beaded window charm. With Shylos name etched on a heart. It hangs in my kitchen window. He's buried right outside that window. His favorite spot.

Putting a pet down is never any easy decision to make. Our 14 year old lab mix, Sam, had been on a steady decline since spring of 2024. We thought we were going to have to say goodbye in May, but with treatment of his symptoms he bounced back relatively well. However, Sam's mobility was becoming more and more limited, to the point that we would have to help him up from lying down. Sam had the unfortunate luck of contracting mange in his old age as well. After defeating the mites, it took a toll on him. My wife and I do not have children and our dogs are our kids. Sam is the youngest, but has had the roughest life. We decided the time had come for Sam to pass-on with what dignity he could. We were going to take him into the vet, but thought about the aftermath of us in a public place, getting Sam in a bag/box, then having to unwrap him at home. We opted to use an in home pet euthanasia. CodaPet was the recommended service by our Vet. We had prepared a bed outside (perfect weather), fed Sam some pizza, and loved on him until Dr. Loughmiller arrived right on time. Dr. Loughmiller was professional and concise. She answered any questions we had about the procedure and was timely the process. Her follow-up after the procedure was appreciated as well. She sent us a mailer that included a daangle decoration with a stamped metal dog paw, rainbow crystals, clear crystals, and Sam's name on a tag. Along with the Rainbow Bridge poem. It was appreciated and he hung the decoration about our kitchen sink. We will, unfortunately, be using CodaPet again in the not so distant future, since we have two other elderly dogs. Thanks for what you provide.

we had to make the very hard decision to have our 11 year old dog Piper put to sleep because she was clearly suffering. Piper would always get nervous when going to a vet office. Our son suggested that we use in home pet euthanasia to have her put to sleep where she was comfortable and with us. We found CodaPet and made an appointment. Dr Alexandra Loughmiller called us the night before to explain everything and see if we had any other questions. When she arrived she was so very compassionate and caring. Piper went right up to her and the Dr played with her a bit and was comforting to her as well as us. While it was so very hard to have this done this was clearly the way to do it, at home with us where she was very comfortable and with the people who she loved. Dr Loughmiller could not have been more kind and caring. I would very much recommend that anyone who is facing this kind of unforunate situation, that in home pet euthanasia is the way to do it and CodaPet and Dr Loughmiller were the absolute best.

Dr. Loughmiller was very polite & sympathetic when helping us with our dog. It was the hardest decision we ever made as a family & she helped ease this burden.
